Erica was a young woman with both personality and charisma. Although she had special needs and was nonverbal, Erica enjoyed life to the absolute fullest. She loved music, the beach, and especially Disney. Walking outside on a bright, sunny day would always bring a smile to her beautiful face. Even after her diagnosis with cancer, Erica remained strong not only for herself, but also for the ones she loved. Through Erica’s Free Parking, we hope to continue the legacy of Erica’s courage and joy. Also, we hope to offer compassion and awareness, realizing that “An individual doesn’t get cancer, a family does”

(Terry Tempest Williams).
